Abstract
The development and application of reliable computational methods for measuring molecular similarity are discussed. The procedure provides a quantitative expression of molecular shape. The general concepts underlying shape characterization are examined and results are provided regarding the study of fuzzy surfaces, such as those occurring in more realistic molecular models
